Is anybody on the forum willing to listen to a sound cut and give some unvarnished critique?

It is also now possible to make a track renaming Nyquist plug-in (https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/nyquist_macros.html)

For example:

There is no way to configure Audacity to do that. It would be "possible" (but rather complex) to create a Python application that uses Audacity as the back end for playing and recording. There is some information here about controlling Audacity from Python https://manual.audacityteam.org/m...

it was more a light blue bar Was it like this: https://manual.audacityteam.org/m/images/b/bb/multi_tool_selecting_with_cursor.png If so, then that's when the "Multi-Tool" is selected. (More info here: https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/multi_tool.html) As you've discovered, you can use t...

Windows start menu -> Shift + click the power button -> Select "shut down"

Nice video, though I thought it a bit unfair to complain about the answers given 5 years ago and then say "but hey, Audacity already has this functionality, if you know where to look for it." 5 years ago, Audacity did not have this functionality, but in response to user's "feature req...

See this post, then ask questions that can be answered: viewtopic.php?p=359798#p359798
(there is no helpful answer to "nothing works", especially as the tools clearly do work for other users).

I've tried the links before and nothing works

Which links have you tried? (there's clearly no point in us writing the same long explanations again).

Did you change the work? If you decided to produce in stereo (two tracks) instead of mono, the size of the show will have doubled. That will double the size of the project, but it is not relevant to the error message. ACX-Check is limited to a length (duration) of 100m samples, (not a "size&qu...
